Ever wondered how many calories in a slice of toast? Find out here for plain or buttered toast, and on different types of bread: white, rye and wheat
You’ll see below that the type of bread has very little effect on your toast calories, but putting butter on it raises the calorie count. Still want to enjoy pure natural butter on your toast with less calories? Try this easy tip: store your butter dish at room temperature. It’ll be soft enough that it will spread easily and thinly, so you’ll be able to use just a little butter with your toast. If toast with butter sounds boring, we’ve got an article on other toast toppings.

Other things to consider about your toast
You may be wondering if there is any point in eating wheat or rye bread - you can see above that the whole wheat toast calories are not much different from those of white bread toast. Yes, there is still some advantage in eating wheat or rye bread over white bread. This is that you get a bit more fiber, meaning you feel full for longer.
Another point is that if you're more concerned with toast carbs, you won't see a whole lot of difference between different breads or whether you add butter or not. As mentioned above, butter does increase the amount of fat - but it doesn't significantly affect the amount of carbs in toast.
